Innovative Interactive Systems

This is the main webpage for the 3rd year Bachelor class »Innovative Interactive Systems« (INBNOV-08.2012-2013), taught in the 2nd block of the 2012–2013 academic year. This page will function as the primary means of communication for materials and assignments for the class. The Nestor page of the class will not be used for this purpose and simply links here. The class will be taught in English. For questions and comments please contact the instructors.
The aim of the class is to provide the students with a basic knowledge of the design principles for human-computer interaction and the design life cycle for interactive systems. In the second part of the lecture, novel platforms for interaction will be addressed such as, for example, direct touch, large table and wall displays, collaborative interfaces, sketch-based interfaces, mobile devices, and 3D tracking. At the end of the class, students will be familiar with user-centered system design and the interface design life cycle, methods for prototyping visual applications, methods for evaluating user interfaces, and interface design challenges for novel interfaces. The class is accompanied by a tutorial in which presence is mandatory. In this tutorial you will deepen your understanding of the presented material through exercises, implementations, presentations, and discussions. The class relates to statistics, computer graphics, and other subjects in which interfaces need to be provided.
This year there will be two days of lectures and eight lab sessions/presentations. Please note that the lab session in the second week take place at a different time from the times during the rest of the block.
